| What some are calling a 'simple quelling of rebel factions' could easily spin into another Manywar. Do you want that? Thousands upon thousands dead? Kingdoms falling to never rise again?
=== Awakening Developments ===
The process of [[Awakening]] [[Lifeless]] had already been developed before the Manywar. However, the [[Awakening#Awakening Commands|Command]]s that had been known previously required fifty [[Breath]]s to create a single Lifeless.
However, one of the [[Five Scholars]], [[Shashara]],
New Commands were also being discovered rapidly, and a golden age of Awakening took place, due in large part to the Five Scholars.{{book ref|wb|32}} These new discoveries helped further learning and knowledge, but they also provided dangerous weapons. The House of Idris, ruling family of Hanald,
=== The Returned's Prophecy ===
At that point, one of the [[Returned]] had a vision of war.{{book ref|wb|32}} This ended up being the catalyst for the war, as it prompted [[Vasher]], then called Strifelover, to

=== The Split of Five Scholars ===
As the Manywar began, the Five Scholars each seemed to go their own way.{{book ref|wb|32}} It appears likely that [[Vasher]] and [[Shashara]], as husband and wife, remained on the same side. It is also likely that the brothers, [[Arsteel]] and Yesteel
=== Creation of Nightblood ===

▲Working together, Vasher and Shashara successfully managed to develop Nightblood, a [[BioChroma#Type IV|Type IV Biochromatic Entity]].{{book ref|wb|51}} Patterned after [[Shardblade]]s that Vasher had seen on a visit to the planet [[Roshar]], Nightblood was designed to be a similarly destructive weapon.{{reddit ref|books|2ytg2h|ct6ccoe}} Through a complex and experimental process they created a sentient sword with a Command to destroy evil. Unfortunately, as a sword, Nightblood had no concept of the difference between good and evil, and so could be used to wreak great destruction.

=== Death of Shashara ===
Vasher was horrified by the destruction caused by the use of Nightblood.{{
== Resolution ==
=== Return of Kalad's Phantoms ===
At some point during the war, Vasher grew sick of battle and war, possibly due to what he saw Nightblood do in battle. He decided to end the Manywar by returning his Phantoms from battle to Hallandren. He took control of his own nation in an effort to end the fighting, which ended up being successful.{{book ref|wb|epilogue}} The threat of his armies was enough to frighten
=== Peacegiver's Treasure ===
Vasher also gave up the majority of his Breaths, around fifty thousand or so{{book ref|wb|40}} that he had collected during the course of the Manywar.{{book ref|wb|15}} Vasher endowed them on a priest, likely of the [[Cult of the Returned]], and told him to keep them safe for him, in the event they should ever be needed.{{book ref|wb|58}} This man became the first God King.{{book ref|wb|32}}
=== Shattering of Hanald ===
==== Formation of Idris ====
==== Formation of Hallandren ====
In the wake of the Idrian Royal family's departure, and Vasher's step down from military dictatorship, the Cult of the Returned took control of the new nation, naming it Hallandren.{{book ref|wb|32}} Their religion eventually evolved into the [[Iridescent Tones]]
== Legacy ==
=== Kalad's Phantoms ===
Over time, the specifics of Kalad's Phantoms were forgotten and they became known as the D'Denir,{{book ref|wb|58}} statues that had been a gift from Peacegiver as a memorial to the thousands killed{{book ref|wb|5}} in the Manywar,{{book ref|wb|28}} as well as a reminder
=== Lingering Tensions Between Nations ===
While the war itself was over, the tensions between the nations never fully vanished. Tedradel's hatred of Hallandren, in particular, would remain strong well over three centuries later.{{book ref|wb|1}} Pahn Kahl, too, hated Hallandren
=== Poor Relations Between Idris & Hallandren ===
Idris and Hallandren would keep an uneasy peace for the next three hundred years. Since the Royals took the blood of [[Vo]], the first Returned, with them, they had a legitimate claim to the throne of T'Telir, a worry to many Hallandren.{{book ref|wb|32}} Hallandren still considered the Idrians to be rebel province within the borders of their nation.{{book ref|wb|16}} In addition to old hatreds, Idris controlled mountain passes that allowed trade routes to nations in the north, as well as copper mines. Hallandren was enraged by this, and often felt that the tariffs charged by the Idrians were too high.{{book ref|wb|5}}
Eventually, about twenty years before the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]], King [[Dedelin]] of Idris and [[Susebron]] of Hallandren arranged a treaty where Dedelin would send one of his daughters to marry the God King, in hopes of forestalling war and easing the rising tensions between the two nations.{{book ref|wb|1}} The daughter would reintroduce the blood of the First Returned to the lineage of Hallandren, reinforcing the God King's claim on the throne. The promise of this daughter kept Hallandren aggression towards Idris at a minimum, at least until they got their bride.
